Lenoma Jean (Johnson) Lewis

Lenoma Jean Lewis, a beloved mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully on March 30, 2025, at the age of 89 years. Born on April 7, 1935, in Belleville, Kansas, she was the daughter of Russell and Lillian (Jensen) Johnson. Lenoma lived a life filled with love, laughter, and adventure, making a lasting impact on everyone she met.
 
From her humble beginnings in Belleville, Lenoma grew into a remarkable woman who dedicated herself to both her family and her career. For 35 years, she worked as a paralegal at Clark, Mize, and Linville Law Firm, where her strong work ethic and unwavering dedication earned her the respect and admiration of her colleagues.
 
Lenoma was a sports fanatic and an avid fan of the Kansas City Chiefs and NASCAR. She often found joy in cheering for her favorite teams and sharing those exhilarating moments with her family. In addition to her love for sports, she enjoyed the thrill of going to the casino and spending summers camping at the lake. Her adventurous spirit led her to scuba dive in Belize, where she found beauty beneath the waves and made memories that she cherished deeply.
 
Above all else, Lenoma loved her family unconditionally. She is survived by her two sons, Dave Lewis (Joanne) and Steve Lewis, who carry her legacy of kindness and compassion. Her grandchildren—Colter Lewis, Lexie Lewis, Erica Lewis, and Garrett Lewis—were a source of immense pride and joy for her. Lenoma also embraced her role as a step-grandparent, cherishing Nichole Bowden, and took great delight in her great-grandchildren: Leah Lewis and Morgan Lewis. She was also a proud step-great-grandmother to Cameron Bowden, Kylee Bowden, and great-great-grandmother to Evelyn Martin and Isabella Hyden.
 
Lenoma was preceded in death by her loving parents and her devoted husband, Charles "Mike" Lewis. Their memory will forever be cherished by those who knew and loved her.
